Scene: Archibald's Library Earth Lyrics - Singles - Secret Garden

Yes child, come in 

Thank you, sir 

Are you well, do they take good care of you? 

Yes sir, thank you sir 

Is there anything you need 

Would you like some toys, or books or dolls perhaps? 

Might I 

Speak up, child 

Might I have a bit of earth, sir? 

A bit of earth? 

To plant seeds in, yes sir, a garden 

Do you care about gardens so much, then? 

(I didn't know about them in India, I was always ill and tired) 

A bit of earth? 

(And it was too hot, I sometimes played at making little flower beds) 

(Sticking things in the sand)

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

She wants a little bit of earth 

She'll plant some seeds 

The seeds will grow, the flowers bloom 

But is their bounty what she needs? 

How can she chance 

To love a little bit of earth? 

Does she not know? 

The earth is old, and doesn't care if 

One small girl wants things to grow 

She needs a friend 

She needs a father, brother, sister, mother's arms 

She needs to laugh 

She needs to dance and learn to work her girlish charms 

She needs a home 

The only thing she really needs, I cannot give 

Instead she asks, a bit of earth, to make it live 

Photos 

She should have a pony 

Gallop cross the moor 

She should have a doll's house 

With a hundred rooms per floor 

Why can't she ask for a treasure? 

Something that money can buy, that won't die 

When I'd give her the world 

She asks, instead for some earth 

A bit of earth 

She wants a little bit of earth 

She'll plant some seeds 

The seeds will grow, the flowers bloom 

Their beauty, just the thing she needs 

She'll grow to love the tender roses 

Lilies fair, the iris tall 

And then in fall, her bit of earth 

Will freeze and kill them all 

A bit of earth, a bit of earth 

A bit of earth, a bit of earth
